The short video shows the ancient times, and the emperors cried with envy!

Chapter 599 France: Having fewer children will really lead to the country’s destruction!

[As the most courageous man in France, he was once the representative of France, and every French man was proud to be called a French Guard.]

[However, it was because of a decree issued by the Emperor that influenced future generations that France lost its advantage at a critical juncture - population! ]

[The Civil Code promulgated by Emperor Napoleon stipulates that the assets of the owner will be divided equally among the children after his death, including the nobility. Previously, the eldest son inherited the property, but now it has suddenly changed. ]

[This led to many nobles in the past having fewer children, because having too many would cause problems with heirs.]

【At that time, only the nobles were able to have more children and raise them. 】

[So, after all these changes, in the hundred years after Emperor Napoleon, the number of children in France decreased by nearly one-fifth.]

"Isn't this my Enfeoffment Order? Only Napoleon applies it to the whole society."

The Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, looked at France in the video and was inspired.

"This Emperor Na is indeed a great hero with outstanding military talent, but he has used up all his IQ to gain political talent, which is why he made such a joke."

Zhufu Yan next to him snorted. As the top economic architect of the Han Dynasty, he designed a salt factory for the Han Dynasty that was supervised by the government and operated by merchants.

Moreover, people have learned that what is worrying is not the scarcity of wealth but the inequality of distribution of wealth.

The Enfeoffment Order was launched by Emperor Wu of Han in order to weaken the nobility. Perhaps Emperor Nahuang had the same idea, but acted too quickly.

He is consistent from top to bottom.

The common people are very vulnerable. If the eldest son cannot inherit all the property, the family cannot be maintained and the common people will become even more vulnerable.

Almost all emperors were able to recognize this problem and expressed their opinions.

Liu Bang shook his head and pointed out the most fundamental problem with this code:
"His idea is indeed good, but it's too early. When a family only has enough wealth for one person to survive, it must be left to that one person, and others will not think it's a big deal.

But after he divides it equally, everyone will die."

This is human nature!
Liu Bang himself was the third child. Back then, Liu Taigong was also a rich farmer in the village, but he could not afford to raise so many children in the family, so Liu Laosan wandered around the village since he was a child.

In the end, he even became a retainer of Zhang Er because he could not support himself.

Na Huang himself became the glory of mankind, but he brought suffering to the people below.

[This is not the end. Let's look at a set of data. In 1750 AD, France still had more than 40 million people. Such a population was the largest in Europe at that time.]

【At that time, one in six Europeans was a Frenchman.】

[However, by the 20th century, the population of Europe had increased, but correspondingly, the population of France had not increased, and even decreased by several million, leaving only more than 36 million.]

"That's three million young and strong laborers!"

During the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Jiajing, who was always thrifty, couldn't help but gasp. It was because of his stinginess that he felt so distressed.

He couldn't imagine how great a loss his Ming Dynasty would suffer if this group of people were missing.

He does treat human life as worthless, but when the number is large enough, people become valuable.

Three million is a huge number in any country.

What's more, the population of France itself is not that large.

[In this case, if we add that France suffered 1.35 million casualties during World War I, and several states on the border were destroyed.]

[Almost half of the French people were killed or injured, which is nearly a million deaths. It can be said that the world war at that time successfully made France a nation of mourning.] "That's almost five or six million people!"

Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath. Let alone France, even if China lost so many people at once, I'm afraid the dynasty would have to be restarted.

There is no other reason. Five or six million people are not just numbers. Even in modern times, it means that one person out of a hundred people is randomly selected to die.

In feudal China, the last person who did this was Yang Guang.

Yang Guang was emperor for five or six years, and he worked three million men to death. In the end, there were not enough men left, so women had to take over and serve as civil engineers to build palaces and canals for him.

At that time, the Sui Dynasty had mountains of granaries, but there were starving people everywhere. If you were in this situation, would you rebel?

Therefore, those who in later generations praised Yang Guang for his great talent and strategy were either stupid or bad.

To get back to the point, France’s losses were shocking even in the eyes of the Qing emperor, who did not regard human life as human.

"If five or six million people were to die in one day, I'm afraid I would have to pack up and return to my hometown in Liaodong."

The one who was speaking was Emperor Qianlong. When he said this, everyone else was sweating and didn't dare to respond.

But he was right. So many people died, whether they were Han or Manchu, which was equivalent to reopening the country.

The Taiping Rebellion in later generations was so violent, but after more than ten years, only three or four million people died.

Daiqing still almost died. If it weren't for the blood transfusion from the foreign man, he would have died long ago.

[This is the data of France at that time. In contrast, in the Second German Empire at that time, although William Wallace was not a human being, he madly treated the Junker nobles as filler babies. ]

[But Germany has a large population! As early as 1850, Germany had surpassed France and became a populous country, and the population ratio was extremely healthy.]

[Even if the casualties are no less than those in neighboring France, there will always be more people to make up for it. ]

[Besides, there is also the group of frustrated officers represented by that failed art student, so Germany has never lacked men.]

【At the same time, the French women across the street can no longer find young men to marry! 】

[At the same time, some important positions had to be handed over to women, and they had only one request, to stop fighting and maintain a compromising attitude in the face of everything. The backbone of France... was broken! ]

"Women are indeed not capable of carrying the inheritance of the country!"

This is not male chauvinism, but a serious fact, a law summed up by the grassland people over thousands of years.

Kublai Khan looked at the women behind him. No matter whether they were princesses married to the King of Korea or princesses married to the royal family of Dali, he did not care about them. In the end, he set his sights on Crown Prince Zhenjin.

"Real gold! Remember this! The Golden Family has always been a male bloodline! Kill any female in power!"

Kublai Khan exuded a murderous aura. Looking at the fate of France, he suddenly thought of the people on the grassland who were assimilated by the Mongols.

In those tribes, all men, including boys who were taller than the wheels (flat wheels), would be killed, leaving only women and girls.

In this way, after a generation, they will forget their ethnic origins, and the children they give birth to will be Mongolians.

Women have always been property and vassalages, not the main body of the nation!

This is the lesson Genghis Khan taught them, but unfortunately, the French had no choice.

Because their bravest man died on the way to reunion.
